Can Premium Steel Fencing Face Extreme Temperatures?
- BY Tripti Kakkar
Are you tired of your fencing buckling under the pressure of extreme weather conditions? Do you worry about your property’s security when the mercury rises or plunges? If you own a property in the harsh Australian sun or the tough cold winters, you understand the frustration and concern that comes with maintaining fencing that can withstand the elements.
At Stock & Noble, we supply the finest fencing solutions to high-end property owners across Australia and New Zealand. We’re not just in the business of fencing; we’re in the business of providing peace of mind. With years of expertise in matching the needs of owners with beautifully designed durable solutions, we know the importance of a fencing system that can defy even the most extreme temperatures.
In this article, you’ll discover how our Premium Steel Post and Rail fencing stands tall in scorching heat and perishing cold. You’ll learn why our innovative design ensures stability and security year-round, no matter what nature throws your way.
Super Strong: All-Metal Construction
Our steel fencing is crafted with precision engineering and quality materials, making it the ideal choice for properties in extreme climates. Unlike traditional wooden or PVC fencing, which can warp, rot, or become brittle over time, our all-metal construction stays unaffected, strong and durable.
Smart Design: Thermally Independent
One of the key features of our Premium Steel Post and Rail Fencing System is its thermally independent design. There is sufficient clearance between the rails and the lock spacers inside each post to accommodate slight thermal expansion and contraction. Thus each section of the fence is engineered to expand and contract independently, minimising the risk of damage caused by thermal expansion. This unique design ensures that our fencing remains stable and secure, even in the face of fluctuating temperatures. Simply put, whether it’s super-hot or freezing cold outside, the fence can handle it without breaking.
Keeps its Cool in the Heat
In the peak summer months, typically metal can become uncomfortably hot to the touch, posing a risk to both humans and animals. However, our Premium Steel Fence’s texture black finish is specifically formulated to reach temperatures about 8 to 11°C above the surrounding air temperature, maxing out around 46-49°C, while our gloss white finish tends to stay cooler, around 48°C. (The limits refer to only a few times when the temperature reaches its maximum and doesn’t happen regularly).
The temperature control feature ensures that your fence remains cool and comfortable even on the hottest days.
Stays Strong in the Cold
Cold weather can be just as challenging for fencing materials as extreme heat. PVC fences, in particular, are prone to becoming brittle, fatigued and cracked in freezing temperatures. In comparison, our Premium Steel Post and Rail Fence’s steel construction remains flexible and durable, providing reliable security year-round.
Structural Stability
One of the most common issues with traditional fencing is structural instability caused by thermal expansion and contraction. Welded metal fences often suffer from heaving posts and cracking paint, while PVC fences may experience rail shrinkage or bowing. Our Fence’s innovative design includes sufficient clearance to accommodate thermal fluctuations, ensuring that your fence remains strong and secure in all weather conditions.
Long-Term Investment
Investing in our Premium Steel Fencing is not just about immediate security—it’s about long-term peace of mind. Our fencing is designed to withstand the test of time, providing reliable protection for your property for years to come. With minimal maintenance required and a range of finishes available to suit your aesthetic preferences, this Fence is the smart choice for property owners seeking durable, weather-resistant fencing solutions.
